Scleral dellen after bilateral adjustable suture medial rectus muscle resection

Ocular complications after strabismus surgery in a large study population were recently reported. The most frequent of these complications included pseudoptosis, corneal dellen, conjunctival folds, and punctate epithelial keratopathy. We report the occurrence of a rare complication, scleral dellen, occurring in a healthy 30-year-old man after bilateral adjustable suture medial rectus muscle resection for residual exotropia.
